📋 About This Mod
Description
This mod fixes the conversation with Triss at the start of "A matter of life and death". If you haven't yet completed the "Carnal sins" quest, you should have a 4th dialogue option Who's Ingrid Vegelbud that does not appear due to a bug.
You can use the cheat removefact("q308_left_dawn_estate") to unlock this conversation even if you've completed the carnal sins - but remember to add the fact back after using the conversation option! addfact("q308_left_dawn_estate")
Cause of the bug
In the dialogue condition's, there's a "Less than" instead of "Less than or equal to" 0 equivality regarding the fact "q308_left_dawn_estate", so the game expects the "fact" to have a value of at least -1, which is impossible.

If you like the bugfixes, endorsing them would make me very happy - and motivate me to produce more of them (there are a few more i'd like to add) - it's the least you can do for me:) After all, I'm spending time to fix and upload some overlooked stuff for free:)
This bug fix restores a missing dialogue option in The Witcher 3's 'A Matter of Life and Death' quest. If you haven't completed 'Carnal Sins' yet, you'll now see the fourth option asking about Ingrid Vegelbud. A small but essential fix for completionists and role-players.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 469 endorsements, so it's a trusted fix.
- Tiny download and easy install—just drop it in and forget it.
- Essential for players who want to exhaust all dialogue options and role-play properly.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects one dialogue option—if you've already completed 'Carnal Sins', this mod does nothing for you.
- Last updated in 2021, so it may not be tested with the latest game patches (though likely still works).
For Witcher 3 players who hate missing dialogue options and want the full conversation with Triss. Also for completionists who want to see every line of dialogue. Skip if you've already finished 'Carnal Sins' or don't care about this specific interaction.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to install this before starting 'A Matter of Life and Death' to see the fix in action.
- If you're using a mod manager, just drag and drop; if manual, place the file in your 'Mods' folder.
- This mod only matters if you haven't completed 'Carnal Sins' yet—plan your quest order accordingly.
